Hello, Lovely!
My name is Tara. I’m a wife, a mother of four sons, a grandmother to five wonderful grandchildren, and the cofounder and co-owner of Hello Lovely!
Hello Lovely began during a season of change in my own life. As my youngest son was finishing high school, I was moving through my 40s and experiencing the many changes that can come with perimenopause and menopause.
During that time, I became much more intentional about nutrition, vitamins, minerals, and the ways I could support my overall wellness. The more I learned, the more interested I became in supplementation and in taking a more active role in caring for myself.
But I quickly became frustrated by something else: the price.
I regularly found supplements priced at $39, $49, $69, and even $79. I knew those prices simply weren’t realistic for many women, especially when building a wellness routine may involve more than one product.
I believed women deserved another option.
Why We Created Hello Lovely
Hello Lovely was created around a simple idea:
Quality supplements should feel accessible, approachable, and made with women in mind.
Our mission is to offer thoughtfully sourced supplements at prices that make everyday wellness more accessible.
Over the years, I have spent countless hours researching ingredients, manufacturers, testing practices, formulations, and the standards behind the products we offer.
Quality Matters to Us
We take product quality seriously.
Hello Lovely works with manufacturers that follow applicable current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements for dietary supplements, and our supplements are submitted to third-party laboratories for testing based on specifications established for each product.
Depending on the formula, testing may include areas such as ingredient identity, heavy metals, and microbiological contaminants.
You can learn more on our Quality & Testing page.
Why the Name “Hello Lovely”?
The name is deeply personal to me.
Like so many women, I have gone through seasons when I didn’t feel comfortable in my own body. Pregnancy, nursing, motherhood, hormones, aging, and simply living life can change our bodies in ways we don’t always expect.
There have been times when I looked in the mirror and focused only on what had changed. I compared myself to the woman I was in my 20s or early 30s and wondered why I couldn’t look the way I once did.
Eventually, I realized that wasn’t the relationship I wanted to have with myself.
A woman’s body can move through an extraordinary number of seasons. Our bodies grow, adapt, nurture, carry us through difficult moments, and continue changing throughout our lives.
I wanted Hello Lovely to be a small daily reminder of that.
You are still lovely.
Not because of your age.
Not because of a number on a scale.
Not because you look the way you did ten years ago.
Simply because you are you.
A Little More Love
Hello Lovely is about more than supplements.
I want women to feel encouraged to care for themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally. I want women to remember that wellness isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about taking care of the person you already are.
I’m still learning this myself.
When I catch myself focusing on the things I don’t like about my body, I try to replace that thought with:
“Thank you for my lovely body. How can I love my body today?”
That’s the spirit behind Hello Lovely.
Take care of yourself.
Encourage another woman.
Share the love.
Be the love.
Xoxo,
Tara
